Game Thread: Illinois vs Nebraska

[LocalChief505]

Back to back weeks that we have made bad teams look better than they are.

You mean good. Make bad teams look good. We are bad. Like seriously, obviously, glaringly bad.

 

[TheChief4Life]

Neb is bad. We are making them look amazing. This illini squad is a terrible football team

I disagree. Nebraska looks PLENTY bad tonight.

We’ve made ourselves look terribly bad.

Well, we’re not making them look amazing. They’re trying desperately to give us this game and we keep refusing to take it.

Nebraska is doing what they can to Nebraska this away. But we're not even middling enough to let them do it. This has been a rough watch. I really don't think we win another game this year. Maybe Indiana? Every other team is for sure better than us (yes, that includes Northwestern).

I didn't want us to go all 2002 or 2008 this year. Well we didn't. We went full Beckman. This hurts.

I'll be at the Indiana game, so I hope so. I'll probably also have to race Red Grange as well. I can't imagine there are going to be a lot of options.

I don't wanna hear anyone mf'ing Henry or the defense tonight. it's a miracle its only a two possession game.

 

[Nikethreadguysm]

Cool turnover, but we won’t get anything done with the ball lol

It’s Nebraska. They aren’t good.

We win this game if we at least had a mediocre offense.

Here illinois, please take this football and score.

No, we do not want to score.

Iv

Luke has the most INT's in FBS. Wow

I've been 911 for Paddock for 3 weeks. He won't throw more Int's than Td's every freaking game!

 

[Illini231]

how bad is Leary?

 

[skyIdub]

Is there crying in football?

And not even because you are sad.

It's just how bad your eyes hurt from looking at this steaming pile of garbage. Fumes. Bugs. Weeds.

Anyone have a good backup team they root for?

I’ve lived in Austin 30 years and sent one daughter to UT. I think i qualify for a hardship case for honorary UT fan.

“and here come the Illini”

 

[Ramrod2010]

1st play in Nebraska territory this half. That is unfathomable.

 

[the national]

If you eliminate those turnovers, Neb would be blowing us out. Disagree if you want but we are not good. That’s my point

 

[RockfordIllini]

Do we have a fake rally in us?

 

[TheChief4Life]

If you eliminate those turnovers, Neb would be blowing us out. Disagree if you want but we are not good. That’s my point

But… If we eliminate the TDs Nebraska scored, we’d be winning.

See how dumb that sounds?

 

[CDRUSN]

Well, the last FS1 viewers who are not fans of either team have officially given up on watching this turd roast of a game. And weren't they 2 of the most delusionally charming folks you'd ever want to meet.

 

[the national]

Also, Matt Rhule complains a lot.

 

[aaeismacgychel]

Awful timeout. That's on the coaches. Gotta get the play in
